Recently, we received an urgent call from our Class A member-owner, Anza Electric Cooperative, Inc., following a devastating fire that destroyed 34 poles, over half a mile of conductor, and several miles of fiber optic cable. Without hesitation, our dedicated crews sprang into action, coordinating closely with Anza teams already on the ground. Despite facing brutal heat and long 12–14-hour days through the weekend, our crews worked side by side with Anza Electric crews to replace nearly all the damaged infrastructure in just a few days. Thanks to their hard work and determination, Anza was prepared to reenergize their lines well before fire officials gave the all-clear. As our Transmission Maintenance Manager, Robert Bivens, said: “I am proud of the dedication the guys on the line crew and the substation crew has to our cooperatives-assisting in restoring lines or helping out whenever we can. Sometimes these calls take them away from their families for an extended period of time, but they are always willing to make the sacrifice to keep the power flowing in cooperative communities. They are a special group of guys.” Arizona G&T Cooperatives is incredibly proud of the unwavering commitment and teamwork shown by everyone involved. This is what it means to be part of a cooperative, lending a hand when it’s needed most. #Cooperativespirit #AzGT
